Description

Books and Habits, from the Lectures of Lafcadio Hearn

Return to Table of Contents These chapters, for the most part, are reprinted from Lafcadio Hearns Interpretations of Literature, 1915, from his Life and Literature, 1916, and from his Appreciations of Poetry, 1917. Three chapters appear here for the first time. They are all taken from the student notes of Hearns lectures at the University of Tokyo, 1896-1902, sufficiently described in the earlier volumes just mentioned. They are now published in this regrouping in response to a demand for a further selection of the lectures, in a less expensive volume and with emphasis upon those papers which illustrate Hearns extraordinary ability to interpret the exotic in life and in books. It should be remembered that these lectures were delivered to Japanese students, and that Hearns purpose was not only to impart the information about Western literature usually to be found in our histories and text-books, but much more to explain to the Oriental mind those peculiarities of our civilization which might be hard to understand on the further side of the Pacific Ocean. The lectures are therefore unique, in that they are the first large attempt by a Western critic to interpret us to the East. That we shall be deeply concerned in the near future to continue this interpretation on an even larger scale, no one of us doubts. We wish we might hope for another genius like Hearn to carry on the work. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
